It's autumn and Adrian Avena is here to tell you how to successfully catch bass while many other outdoor enthusiasts are headed into the woods for hunting season. In the fall, shad start to migrate from the main channels into the backs of creeks. It's a great time to target bass with hardbaits, like crankbaits and jerkbaits. Here is a list of the baits that Adrian likes to fish the most:

Berkley Digger Crankabit
Berkley Warpig Lipless Crankbait
Berkley Bad Shad Crankbait
Squarebill Crankbaits

Avena also discusses areas to target when fishing with hardbaits in the fall, and the Abu Garcia equipment he uses to fish these lures, which is the Abu Garcia Veracity Casting Rods & Abu Garcia Revo STX Casting Reel.
